lyrics
Too Much
Mallory Graham & Scott Tyler
We all know I’ve had too much,
Too much to drink, too much to love.
I could choose my battles, but that’s just it--
I’d rather choose my bottles than feel a thing.
These days I don’t feel a thing.
Do you wanna talk things over?
You can pick the day.
Just don’t call me when I’m sober.
You don’t like (you never like),
You always hate the things I say.
We all know I feel too much,
Can’t keep me in, can’t take me out.
Who says I can’t be like you,
I’ve got the Wrath of God on my side, too--
And the Devil on the other shoe.
You can call Sunday, Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
(Just call me
We’re only
Family if you say)
